These releases provide official productivity statistics for the 'measured sector' of the New Zealand economy. Productivity is a measure of how efficiently production inputs (capital and labour) are used within the economy to produce output.

We have changed the way we present our productivity statistics information

For the productivity statistics we released on 30 June 2015, and on 23 March 2016, we combined the data from our Productivity Statistics and Industry Productivity Statistics releases into one release each year.
